1.	Solve : Deleting last windowsize state?
Answer» First of all props to the new LOOK ! Haven't been here a while. So here's my PROBLEM: I use Windows XP HOME Edition. So when I open any program in Windows it starts in a small window, so I always have to "maximize" the window. Is there a way to set windows to open a program in a maximized window? (I know there is a way, its in the registry, but I dont know what it is) But lets start here: What is your operating system?
